No. Every image stays 100% in your browser. The AnimeGANv2 style models are tiny (~9MB each ONNX) and download once then cache forever in your browser's IndexedDB.
Hayao — soft, painterly, Ghibli-inspired warm tones. Shinkai — vivid sky, saturated colors, Makoto Shinkai anime aesthetic. Paprika — bold saturated, high contrast, stylized. Original — passthrough, no AI transformation applied.
Typically 1–4 seconds per photo on a modern laptop. First run downloads the ~9MB model; subsequent runs are instant. Batch mode processes multiple photos sequentially.
You can upload JPG, PNG and WebP photos. Each cartoonized result is exported as a PNG at your photo's original resolution.
Portraits and subjects that fill most of the frame — AnimeGANv2 resizes every image to 256×256 for inference, so very small faces and extreme aspect ratios may lose detail or look slightly distorted.
